Clarification Edit: $63/N (banner may lead you to believe that it's $63/2N which it's not) I orginally had a room booked for one night at Hampton Inn Center City for $159/N directly with Hampton Inn. Then I learned about this website. Learned some strategy -- and went to work 1 day prior to departure. 1st. link to PRICELINE through www.savingsbarn.com... it was painless to me. 2nd. went to Priceline and entered criteria. I immediately chose 3 star because I really didn't want to stay in a posh 4 star. 3rd. Started bid at $63 (could've started lower but really didn't want to waste any time and would've been happy with $75 at the start) -- knowing the strategy helped me decide to start off bidding at a much lower rate than I would've if I hadn't know the strategy. 4th Won the first bid and still got the room cheaper FOR THE TOTAL TWO NIGHTS than the one night at the Hampton Inn. PLUS, the $63 rate was 75% off of the published rate for the same Hilton Garden Inn on Expedia. I'm Happy

Got it! - Savingbarn.com (this website's link to PRICELINE) - Philly, PA - Downtown - 2N 4/20 +21 - 3* - $63 per night Won the Hilton Garden Inn Philadelphia. This place goes for $250/night on Expedia.com Thanks.

- What does dahammer mean by: "PL offers "many" rebid opportunities in Phila?" - Max Bid $106? (since the HW deal as described dahammer is at $106) - NOTE: I already have a [Hampton Inn Philadelphia Center City - Convention Center] reserved at $161.10 + 22.55 for 1 night. -- which I will cancel if the HW or PL deal is better. Today is Wed, I'm bidding for this Friday/Saturday nights. Will I be ok? Thanks.

Agreed -- On PL is 3* rating. The hotwire price is excellent. I think that I'm going to attempt the PL first and see what happens. Thanks.

What's the best way to attack this? Philly Center City (or Old City section) for Fri/Sat 4/20 + 4/21 in a 3.5* +. Looking to use Priceline. Of course, will use the link from Savingsbarn.com. Thanks.
